Pros
One key advantage is stability. Since the Japanese government remains the largest stakeholder, the business tends to be stable and risk-averse, which can be a plus for long-term planning and job security.
Cons
However, this stability often comes with a rigid bureaucracy. Career progression tends to be based more on seniority than on individual performance or merit, and opportunities for significant promotions or compensation increases are limited.
